Please note that we do not have sound panels and we are located in a shared building on street level. We unfortunately cannot guarantee a quiet space.

We can control all noise levels coming from inside the studio space (HVAC and appliances) and haven’t had any issues with sound levels but we cannot guarantee other building tenants or outside noises won’t be audible. Please plan accordingly if recording with sound is a priority.

We are open by appointment only.
